Carolyn Hax chat: I feel ‘cheated’ by my wife that my life is changing after kids Advice columnist Carolyn Hax answers your questions about the strange train we call life.

Love this advice from www.washingtonpost.com/advice/2025/...

“Anyone who ’now feel[s] lied to and apologize[s]’ needs to hear, ’Apology accepted, thank you, welcome.’ That's because the cruelty is killing people, and we need a way out of the cruelty, and that means making it as easy as possibly -- appealing even -- for people to walk away from it.”

From our trip to DC two years ago: the grand Smithsonian Castle surrounded by lovely cherry blossoms.

Unfortunately, this building closed for renovations the month before, but we had plenty to do, visiting other parts of this fantastic institution.

Sickening to see it under attack by ideologues.

an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life
that fills them with
compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern.

Beautiful people do not just happen.”

-Elisabeth Kübler-Ross

“The most beautiful people we have known
are those who have known defeat,
known suffering,
known struggle,
known loss,
and have found their way out of the depths.

“The idea that some lives matter less is the root of all that is wrong with the world.”

- Dr. Paul Farmer

To be clear, since some insecure men think this post about them, I’m referring to the men running this country right now who, at the same time, think of themselves as strong leaders AND victims

I’m so tired of insecure men destroying things they don’t understand just to pump up their egos.

How about you?

Words of encouragement needed, please.

I'm trying to overcome the resistance to just start writing.

My next book is outlined, but my mind is telling me: "Wait! There's more you need to flesh out!"

But I know that I'll discover these details as I write. It's just part of the process...

…sure, maybe you can’t just go do the thing right away, especially if it’s something that’s a bit difficult or complex, but you can always learn. And get closer to doing the thing, and then maybe someday actually doing it!

“What you tell yourself about yourself, about your life, about your limitations, you will believe.” - Iyanla Vanzant

Yes! I totally believe this. This is why it really aggravates me when I hear people say, “I’ll never be able to…” or “I couldn’t ever do…”

If you want to do something…
